Cups and Coasters


☕✨ Cups & Coasters: Design, Make & Sublimate
📅 February 28th | 🕓 1pm - 2pm
📍 Utility Works MakerSpace

Create the perfect pair! In this hands-on makerspace workshop, you’ll design and sublimate your own custom mug, then choose how you want to make a matching coaster using a variety of creative techniques.

After personalizing your mug, you’ll select one coaster-making method to explore—sewing, tufting, laser cutting, 3D printing, or sublimation—with guidance from our instructors. Whether you love textiles, digital fabrication, or hands-on crafting, this class lets you try something new and leave with functional, one-of-a-kind pieces.

What to Expect:

  • Learn the basics of mug sublimation
  • Choose a coaster-making method that fits your style
  • Guided instruction using makerspace tools and equipment
  • All materials provided
